Weather Sensitivity of Rice Yield: Evidence from India
Published By: MSE on eSS | Published Date: September, 01 , 2013This study estimates the weather sensitivity of rice yield in India, using disaggregated (district) level information on rice and high resolution daily
weather data over the period 1969-2007. Compared to existing India specific studies on rice which consider only the effects of nighttime
(minimum) temperature, the present study takes into account the effects of both nighttime and daytime (maximum) temperatures along with other
weather variables on rice yield. [MSE WORKING PAPER 81/2013].
